wlanHTOFDMInfo

Return OFDM information for HT transmission

collapse all in page

Syntax

info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cfg)
info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cbw,gi)
info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cbw)

Description

example

info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cfg) returns info, a structure containing orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) information for the input field in a high-throughput (HT) transmission parameterized by configuration object cfg.

example

info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cbw,gi) returns OFDM information for channel bandwidth cbw and guard interval gi. To return OFDM information for the HT-Data field when the format configuration is unknown, use this syntax.

example

info = wlanHTOFDMInfo(field,cbw) returns OFDM information for the specified field and channel bandwidth. To return OFDM information for any field other than HT-Data when the format configuration is unknown, use this syntax.

Perform OFDM demodulation on the HT-LTF, then extract the data and pilot subcarriers.

Generate a WLAN waveform for an HT transmission.

cfg = wlanHTConfig;
bits = [1; 0; 0; 1];
waveform = wlanWaveformGenerator(bits,cfg);

Obtain the field indices and extract the HT-LTF.

ind = wlanFieldIndices(cfg);
rx = waveform(ind.HTLTF(1):ind.HTLTF(2),:);

Perform OFDM demodulation on the HT-LTF.

sym = wlanHTLTFDemodulate(rx,cfg);

Get the OFDM information, then extract the data and pilot subcarriers.

info = wlanHTOFDMInfo('HT-LTF',cfg);
data = sym(info.DataIndices,:,:);
pilots =  sym(info.PilotIndices,:,:);
